JOKE
A philospher and a scientist were sailing in a boat. In the middle of their voyage, the scientist asked the boatsman, ''Hey, do you know anything about science?" "No" replied the boatsmans. "Oh you lost half good of this world."
After sometime into the sail, the philospher asked the boatsman if he knew what philosophy was, and the boatsman replied in the negative. "Oh you definitely lost half good of this world by remaining ignorant from philosophy."
After some more time, the boatsman asked the two people, "Do you guys know how to swim?" They both said no.
"Surely you lost all good of this world then, the boat is going to sink due to a hole in its floor. Only I would make it to the shore perhaps."
hehehe, i remember the parable of the ass. if you dont know i'll tell you later the complete story.
"you don't have to be the brain to be the boss"
haahhahaha nice one. :) TFS
I am sorry but you are completely wrong here dear. If science was the reason for the boat, then probably science contributed to the good the boat was doing but also to the bad. And what has philosophy to do with worldly mischances? Has any philosopher in the world ever saved anyone from a natural disaster? Why was he selfish? The two educated people were educated fools since they, with all their so called knowledge, did not realize it it was against principles to belittle someone just because he did not have the knowledge of what they had. The poor boatsman only informed them that they were going to die because they did not know how to swim. He did not himself know for sure if he could be saved. Do you think he should have saved the two people? Do you think it is humanly possible to do that in such a situation?
Somebody should have told this boatman that his boat would nopt have been there if a scientific mind would not have generated the design of the boat & all three of them would have been saved if he had been 'philosophical' enough to foresee that a small whole in the boat can lead to a big mishap...............tahnkless parasites may save their own lives, but never do any good for anyone else.
nice one ;p
